With Mages grabbing some spirit (maybe me personally) that 25% more in addition to the Glyph of Molten Armor(http://ptr.wowhead.com/?item=42751) with another 20% making a total of 45% of your spirit critin' with this armor active is going to be a DPS ownfest.

Seeing as how people now use Frost a PvP spec the extra armor from Ice Armor is good for PvPers or maybe those who use frost for PvE.

Mage Armor will grant 10% more mana regen. Arcane mages will like this. Even though I myself am Arcane i prefer the molten armor buff, but all that burst damage will drain me. maybe this can be used mid-fight with switching?

along with the 4part bonus it we gain a &*!@load more crit, everything we want :)

The 2p bonus is pretty nice, but im not so sure about the 5% crit on the 4p. I'm going to miss my 5x Hotstreak chains with 8.5, then again. critting with FFB 5% more will most definately result in higher dps then spamming pyro when hot streak wont go away. and while it will be resulting in slightly more hotstreaks. it kinda makes the rotation boring again.

hopefully the living bomb multi-target change sticks. or raiding is going to be alot less fun =p.

70%crit chance of spirit when you actifate molten armori tink in my opinion this is a really good idea go get 2 items from the set

As stated above, this+glyph grants molten armor 70% spirit to crit. I've always been thinking that any spirit = 0 dps and did my best to avoid the gear. But with this percentage, spirit is finally a stat to consider for me as a fire mage.

If you cast Molten / Ice / Mage Armor with two or more pieces of Tier 9 equipped, then switch out said pieces, you keep the benefit that the 2 piece set bonus gives. It's a good idea to keep the set so that you may re-apply the bonus after every death or buff expiration.

No buffs and no consumables

Without Molten Armor, I have 762 Critical Strike Rating .

When I cast Molten Armor while wearing my Main Set, I end up with 1022 Critical Strike Rating.

When I switch in two pieces of Tier 9 gear, cast Molten Armor, and then switch back to my exact same Main Set, I end up with 1093 Critical Strike Rating.

EDIT: I'd like to add that these tests were done with the Glyph of Molten Armor.
